Easy Weeknight Pasta
First off, I want to thank each and every one of you that have tried my recipes, read any of my post, and to all of you that have followed me all these years… Thank you. I genuinely appreciate the love and support you have showed me and my recipes. Especially, thank you for sticking…
Thai Massaman Curry with Tofu
I’m back! After a five year break I’m finally publishing a new recipe! I honestly didn’t know if I would ever get back to this. The past five years have been a crazy blur of helping my Husband start businesses, having and caring for my children, building a custom house, and moving back to my…
Sweet Potato & Kale Enchiladas (V/GF)
I hope you all had a happy Thanksgiving! Sick of holiday food yet? Honestly, I’m not quite there myself yet, I’m still digging the leftover green bean casserole. Well, If you are, this Sweet Potato & Kale Enchilada recipe is perfect for any extra sweet potatoes you may have leftover from your Thanksgiving feast. These…
Alfredo Pasta with Peas & Sun-Dried Tomatoes (V/GF/NF)
This recipe is the beautiful result of me having to get creative with the few ingredients I currently had in the house, to make myself something for lunch earlier this week. I needed to go grocery shopping but didn’t have the energy nor the time that day (who can relate?). The sauce is based off…
Creamy Mushroom Risotto (V/GF)
Mushrooms are definitely an acquired taste. Honestly, I didn’t like them very much until after I became a vegan. Once vegan, mushrooms became my main meat substitute. I tried them in so many different meals, burgers, lasagnas, soups, enchiladas, tacos, and so much more. One of my early vegan favorites was stuffing portobellos with navy…
Roasted “Turkey” Seitan Sandwiches
This recipe starts with making a juicy, and garlicky, Roasted Turkey Style Seitan from scratch. Raw seitan isn’t the most appealing thing to look at -as you can see from mine pictured below- but it is a tasty alternative to eating meat. I could have probably spent more time on rolling my dough into a…
Roasted Vegetable Pasta (V/GF)
This is one of my new favorite weeknight dinners. It can be made in 30-Minutes, super easy, filling, and loaded with veggies. Oven roasting vegetables is my most favorite way to cook vegetables and I LOVE pasta, so why not combine the two? I decided to go with a sun dried tomato sauce that is…
General Tso’s Tofu (V/GF)
One of -what used to be- my most favorite Chinese Restaurant dishes, made vegan! I’m lucky enough to have a plant powered Asian cuisine restaurant close, but it is a once a month treat to get to eat there, so I like to make my own versions for the in between. This isn’t the quickest…
Creamy Roasted Poblano Pasta (V, GF)
I started working on the sauce first, intending it to be a variation in dressing for a pasta salad recipe I made a few months ago, but still haven’t posted because it still needs some tinkering. Next thing I knew, I had made what tasted like a spicy Alfredo sauce. I may not have finished…
Thai Basil Tofu Stir-Fry (V, GF)
My husband took me out to lunch at a local Thai restaurant last week that was super delicious, and it inspired me to make something similar to what I ate there. This recipe is what I came up with. I seriously think I could munch on the pan fried Tofu from this recipe all day,…
Plant Power Bowl with Poblano Cashew Sauce
This is a delicious and healthy meal that is perfect for making ahead of time to pack up as weekday lunches. In my opinion it is just as delicious cold or room temp if you don’t have a way to warm it up when on the go, and there isn’t anything in the dish that…
